If they're looking to make one airport a hub, whereby passengers merely transit in Japan, then it doesn't make any difference whether they choose Narita or Haneda. Perhaps they should stick with Narita, because that airport should not go to waste after all the trouble and money wasted to build…

and things like white rice, have basically no nutrition whatsoever.

Agreed.

What I have noticed is that while Japanese women's skin may not be bad, the men's is another story. By the time they reach their 30's, their skin looks like leather. They age very badly when compared to whites…

People from Quebec are actually doing this often, and it sounds just dumb.

But Canada is officially a multi-lingual nation. Don't the German speakers in Switzerland use 'merci' instead of 'danke'? It's going to happen, just as it does in India. It's when you have people who use words from…

My favorite TZ line: IT'S A COOKBOOK!! Favorite TZ ending: The Penguin breaks his glasses.

Don't know about the second one, but wasn't the first one from an episode called 'To Serve Man'? I wonder how it was translated into other languages.

what wrong with "my bad"

It doesn't make grammatical sense, that's why! I'm always waiting for a noun to follow.

Japanese: kawaiiiiii, oishiiiiii, eeeehhhhh, sugoiiii, saa, any word that is accompanied by sucking of the teeth. annoyance is amplified when these words are said by useless tarentos that appear in…

Thon:

That was a good, inspiring article. Slowly, the Ainus are regaining their self-respect and hopefully, respect from Japanese society. Not being allowed to speak your own language or practise your own customs, being forced to assimilate into Wajin society - that's a lot worse than what some countries have…

24" Laptop? Does it come with wheels?

Where in the article does it say the 24" computer is a laptop or a notebook? Sometimes, you have to use your common sense.

Actually I like the design of Vaio, but as Dis said, they're too expensive. They're relying on their brand…

but who's to say what he's saying about the IOC backroom dealings isn't true?
